Rating Definition:

Very fine. Almost all of the original brown finish and Damascus pattern remain on the barrels. The left fence retains most of the original case colors with a smooth gray and silver gray patina on the balance. The wood is also very fine with a few minor scratches and handling marks overall, and a 3 1/2 inch splinter absent from the upper left side of the forearm. The checkering is well defined. Mechanically excellent.
